Lindenhurst native Jeremy Ruckert scored his first regular-season touchdown with the New York Jets on Sunday.
The tight end hauled in a five-yard pass from quarterback Tyrod Taylor in the fourth quarter against the Buffalo Bills. Watch the play below.
Ruckert, 25, starred at Ohio State before being selected by the Jets in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft. The former Lindenhurst Bulldog is now in his fourth season with his hometown team, where he’s been carving out a role as both a blocker and pass-catcher.
